The Flippers appear in [[Remix 5 (Wii)|Remix 5]]'s prehistoric setting with an orange color, with their captain offscreen. In the [[Two-Player Menu|Two Player]] version of [[Flipper-Flop 2|Flipper-Flop]], there is one cyan Flipper for Player 1 and an orange one for Player 2 in addition to the other seals. Inputting the codeword {{Nihongo|MATCH}} into [[Police Call]] calls up a match, during which [[Wrestler]] poses and flexes on the opponent, all the while Captain Tuck compliments his actions. The call ends with Tuck saying "That's it!", with Wrestler reacting with a confused grunt. In [[Barbershop Remix]], Captain Tuck appears to work as a barber, with the Flippers sporting mustauches. The group also appears in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic]]'' [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#11テビリとバーバーショップ (Tibby and Barbershop)|11テビリとバーバーショップ]] (Tibby and Barbershop), where [[Tibby]] is getting a haircut at the barbershop. He falls asleep as Captain Tuck cuts his hair, but he overdoes it. Embarrassed, the barber moves away, as the seal that was sitting behind them climbs onto Tibby's head to hide the mistake.
